In fact, some people in the crowd naturally recognized Lu Chen and Li Daozong, but these people also knew that these two people were not easy to mess with, and they vaguely heard the names of the two people in the conversation, and they all knew that these two people were obviously. It's not like revealing their identity. Whether there are people from aristocratic families here, of course there are, but even if they are people from these aristocratic families, it is inevitable if they use tricks behind their backs to make Lu Chen and Li Daozong unhappy, but with this person face to face, it is inevitable. When the two of them faced each other, it was purely because they felt that their lives were too long.
"Then let me borrow Brother Lu's good words!" Li Daozong smiled directly at Lu Chen and walked towards the door of the house. As for the guard Zhou Ke, he followed Li Daozhong.
"Your Majesty, please come!" When the servant standing at the door of the house saw Li Daozong, who was majestic and majestic, with a sword hanging on his waist, a golden crown on his head and hair tied up, and a brocade fur coat, and a sense of heroism and wealth surrounding him, he hurriedly saluted Li Daozong.
"No need!" Li Daozong waved his hand directly to the servant, "I am here to answer the question, right?" Li Daozong looked at the servant and glanced towards the courtyard. Unfortunately, there was a screen wall blocking the courtyard, so he could not see the courtyard. The whole picture inside, but you can see two maids standing by the door on the left side of the house gate. One maid is carrying a lantern, and the other is holding a large tray in her hand. On the tray are the four treasures of the study. In this maid Next to him stood a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar. Li Daozong understood immediately that this middle-aged man should be a scribe-like figure, used to record answers and circulate them to the house.
"It's true that I'm here to answer the question!" the servant replied respectfully.
"Can we start?" Li Daozong looked at the servant and asked.
"As long as you are ready, you can start at any time!" the servant replied respectfully.
"Yeah!" Li Daozong nodded, ""Bamboo",
The bamboo shadows sway in the wind,
The clear stream reflects the bright moon.
Walking alone to find a secluded path,
Listen to the sound of falling leaves. "
Li Daozong read out a poem about bamboo that he had come up with. Li Daozong read a sentence, and the scholar next to him memorized a sentence. When Li Daozong finished reading, the scholar also finished writing, dried the ink on the paper, and directed it to the side. With a wave of his hand, a boy ran out from the shadows, took the piece of paper from the middle-aged man, quickly walked around the screen wall and entered the house.
"My lord, please wait a moment!" the servant saluted Li Daozong and said.
"Yes!" Li Daozong nodded and waited there quietly.
After a short time, the boy who had just gone in to deliver the message ran out and whispered a few words into the servant's ear. The servant nodded while listening. After the boy finished whispering, he turned around and disappeared into the house. Behind the gate.
"My lord, I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting for so long!" the servant saluted Li Daozong and said.
"Tell me! What's the result?" Li Daozong waved his hand directly. It was obvious that Li Daozong was a little impatient for waiting at the door of the house for so long, and even regretted wanting to watch the excitement.
"My lord, that great Confucian said that although your poem is good, there are still some flaws in the artistic conception, so it is not enough to sit here!" The servant saluted Li Daozong with an apologetic look on his face.
"Oh!" Li Daozong responded casually, turned around and left the door of the house, returning to Lu Chen. As for Li Daozong, there was no displeasure on his face, but he was a little embarrassed when he saw Lu Chen. After all, he planned to show off that he could take Lu Chen in to see the excitement, but he got off to a bad start.
As for those who knew Li Daozong's identity, they were inevitably a little disappointed when they saw that Li Daozong left so simply. They all hoped that Li Daozong would get angry because he could not enter Nanqu House to attend the reception. What if Li Daozong led others in anger? After rushing into this house, wouldn't there be something good to watch?
"What? Your Majesty, are you unwilling?" Lu Chen looked at Li Daozong and said softly with a smile.
"It's a bad start!" Li Daozong shook his head helplessly and sighed, "It seems that poetry is not what I am good at. Leading troops to fight is more suitable for me!" Li Daozong said with a bitter smile.
"Your Majesty, when you went to answer the question just now, there were a lot of eyes staring at you!" Lu Chen whispered with a sneer at the corner of his mouth next to Li Daozong, "They are probably expecting you to fail and get angry!" Lu Chen raised his right hand slightly. Pointing to the crowd behind him, when Li Daozong went to answer the question just now, Lu Chen observed the crowd. Although he still had a title after time travel, the training from later generations was deep in his bones, so who in the crowd had eyes that were interesting? Lu Chen could see the problem at a glance.
After all, these people were not as trained as Lu Chen, and their expressions would more or less betray their inner thoughts. Lu Chen naturally saw it, so Lu Chen directly reminded Li Daozong.
"Then we can't enter this house today. If today's incident is spread, how can we lose face?" Li Daozong glanced in the direction Lu Chen pointed. As a prince who has been leading troops all year round, he can naturally tell this. of.
"I said, Prince, do you think we two have any dignity? With this bunch of people, no matter whether we can enter this house or not, I'm afraid tomorrow the news of our visit to Pingkangfang today will be spread all over the city. You know, from the moment we entered Pingkangfang, someone has probably gone back to report to their family!" Lu Chen said with a sneer.
"This..." After hearing Lu Chen's words, Li Daozong's expression changed slightly. After all, even though Li Daozong is now the King of Rencheng and a commander with outstanding military exploits, he is only a man of about 20 years old. Young man, when you think about your coming to Pingkangfang, if the news reaches Li Yuan's ears, your cousin will not be able to reprimand you?
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I've already thought of how to refute them about this matter, and I'll make sure they 'return satisfied' when the time comes!" Lu Chen said in a low voice while smiling evilly.
"That's very good, then it depends on Brother Lu!" Li Daozong didn't know why, but when he saw Lu Chen's evil smile, he knew that those who were trying to cause trouble were going to be unlucky again. Li Daozong actually showed up to Lu Chen now. An inexplicable sense of dependence.
When he saw Lu Chen and Li Daozong whispering, the little fat man Qian Junnan consciously moved a few steps to the side. After all, with Qian Junnan's eyes, he could naturally see that Zi Wuyinmao came out, and Lu Chen and Li Daozong were alone. The bodyguard Li Daozong brought with him, as well as the clothes he wore and the aura he carried, definitely did not come from ordinary wealthy families. Therefore, when the two of them were whispering, Qian Junnan moved so that he could not hear their voices. place.
"Brother Lu, why don't you go and give it a try?" Now that Lu Chen said he had a countermeasure, Li Daozong felt relieved and immediately encouraged Lu Chen to try to see if he could enter the house. Although Li Daozong had just Because he couldn't get in, he felt depressed for a moment, but if Lu Chen also broke his sword at the door of the house, wouldn't it mean that Lu Chen's poetry level was almost the same as his own, and then he wouldn't be so embarrassed, so Li Daozong started directly Encourage Lu Chen to try it.
"You want to try too?" Lu Chen looked at Li Daozong's encouraging expression and knew that this guy didn't succeed. He obviously hoped that he wouldn't succeed either. By then, everyone would be the same, and this guy would feel balanced. Obviously Li Daozong is trying to find a psychological balance for himself, but I am afraid that you, the king of the city, will be disappointed. Lu Chen just made up several famous poems about chanting bamboo. If these famous poems cannot be included in this The door only shows that the so-called great scholar in this house is probably someone who is just looking for fame and reputation, and is a person who has nothing to lose.
"Yes! You should try it too. If you succeed, can you take me in to watch the fun?" Li Daozong encouraged Lu Chen with an expectant look on his face.
"Okay! Then let's go and try it!" Lu Chen nodded with a smile and walked directly to the door of the house. Just when Lu Chen was talking to Li Daozong, many people went to the door of the house to try it. However, a few people entered the house, but even more people were rejected.
Lu Chen half-opened the folding fan with a "swish" sound. While gently shaking the folding fan, he walked in front of the servant with square steps. As for the soldiers carrying Weiwei, they naturally followed behind Lu Chen.
"Is this gentleman also here to answer questions?" the servant saluted Lu Chen and asked. The scene where Lu Chen and Li Daozong were talking quietly just now naturally did not escape the servant's eyes. People who have been hanging around Pingkangfang all year round, naturally It can be seen that the person who can whisper with the adult at such a close distance is naturally very distinguished, so when talking to Lu Chen, he is respectful and careful.
"Exactly!" Lu Chen nodded at the servant, and at the same time, what Li Daozong noticed, Lu Chen also noticed.
"Then please tell me your answer, sir?" the servant said respectfully.
"Yeah!" Lu Chen nodded, ""Bamboo"!" Lu Chen directly said the name of his poem.
"Sir, please speak!" The servant nodded to the scribe in charge of recording.
Lu Chen continued to read:
"After Cangwu for thousands of years,
Bamboo to Xiangyuan.
I want to know the resentment of the concubine Xiang,
The branches are full of tears. "
After Lu Chen finished reciting this poem, although it was still about a hundred years before Liu Changqing, who wrote this poem, spoke out, out of respect, Lu Chen still silently apologized to Liu Changqing in his heart: "I'm sorry, I'm borrowing from you." poem!"
"Sir, please wait a moment!" After hearing Lu Chen recite the poem "Moderous Bamboo", the eyes of the literati responsible for recording lit up. Although there were many literati in front of him who had already entered the house with their poems, those poems Compared with Lu Chen's poem, it is obviously not of good quality, because the artistic conception of those people's poems is obviously not as good as that of the young man with a handsome face and luxurious clothes in front of him.
